Which is why I said a page back, "In identical rifles, loaded to their full potential, I find the 308 kicks noticeably less." The quickest way to find this is true is shoot the essentially identical Kimber 84M Montana 308 side-by-side with a Kimber 84L MT 30-06 (as I have done). Even though the 30-06 MT weigh's 4oz's more, I'd defy anyone on this thread that says they can't tell the difference between the two to NOT feel the difference between the two. “Perfection is Achieved Not When There Is Nothing More to Add, But When There Is Nothing Left to Take Away” Antoine de Saint-Exupery
